Condition Related Concerns
Without immunisations, children are at risk of contracting serious diseases. These can lead to complications such as pneumonia, deafness, brain damage, heart problems, and even death.
Causes of the Condition
These diseases, like measles, are caused by specific bacteria or viruses. Immunisations work by introducing a safe form of the disease into the body, stimulating the immune system to build a defence against it.
Treatment Approaches
Treatment approaches include routine childhood immunisations as per the recommended schedule. In some cases, catch-up immunisations may be needed for children who have missed vaccines.
